Turn Toward Me, Love
51
I am here, turn toward me and not away
Every emotion, bring it all to me
Make me part of you, your foil, your sensei
Your dish rag, your diamond, eternally
Let me inside where I can be a thing
You hit or hug, absorb love and anger
A shoe, a bed, a comforter, a wing
For you to step or lay on, or injure
Tear me to pieces limb from limb apart
But let me in, always in, into your heart
Turn toward me in the day I will be there
Turn toward me in the night I will respond
Place the whole of you in my spirit's care
Use me as one to lay your burdens on
I want eagerly any part of you
To cherish with a love that's pure and true

Lovely concept placed in a poem! Is it a dream or reality one seeks? Beautiful!
I would be so complimented, Brenda. Thank you.
Thank you, Invictus, but you know me.
Well you got it bad and so well put I might add.
'Tear me to pieces limb from limb apart
But let me in, always in, into your heart' now I call that some attraction.
I love her very much, ralwus.
just wish I knew who it was don't you ralwus
Me, too. :)
Just kidding.
That's what love is all about... wanting to share every part of someone. A refreshing read. Makes me hopeful that there are people who still know what "love" really means. Thanks NT. :)
Thank you, Felicia. To be in love like this is a special, special thing.
hi did she turn towards you?????
Questions, questions, Brenda. :)
So violent in some respects, yet so gentle and touching. It grabs my heart strings. Very good.
The heart is the center of life, Kebennet. Thank you
Brenda, I don't care who he is in love with. I don't even care who he is, I just love that he has love and is willing to share it in his poetry. I'm like the moon and don't know a thing about love. I am just now an observer of it all.
yeah Ralwus a ring side seat is great when we have such brilliant performances..... tickets would be expensive should we have to pay to go to see this .............
Thank you (I bow) :)

NT, the desire and the urge to be a part of the one you love no matter the circumstance. Well done.

This desire for the woman you love is phenomenal.
